I know how AAS work - I'll ask again...pls show me evidence of masteron binding to the
DHT receptor and the potency at which it binds meaning in the muscle or prostate?
. I have not seen it unless you mean
androgen receptor.
Anadrol being the strongest oral for what exactly?
However even with the literature; AAS will not always act the same in the body (with exception of T), as would be expected on paper (chemical structure, controlled studies, etc)
That is my point. Testosterones, DHT, androsterone, epiandrosterone are all natural occurring bioidentical hormones. So your point in using proviron or masteron to compare androsterone or DHT is not accurate. Synthetic AAS that are altered from their parent hormone behave differently than bioidentical hormones do.
As for masteron; this question belongs in the anabolics forum. Masteron was initially developed for breast cancer, however later abandoned because IT WAS highly androgenic. Perfect example to concrete my above statement
You are incorrect. Not only that masteron was shown to be
less virializing in comparison to test prop and we obviously known DHT is much more virializing than test. DHT is
more androgenic than masteron.
You can see the androgenic ratios between DHT and masteron below:

Masteron
For exampe; I have been taking between 400 and 500 mg of androsterone (it is part of a blend with epiandro). And I would respectively disagree; that very little IF ANY crossing at the blood brain barrier takes place. If you could show me studies on humans (and not rats); please by all means educate me
You asked for evidence and I showed you a study and now you want a human study. Seems like you keep moving the goal post but there is more evidence supporting that is does cross the brain barrier. So the burden is on you to prove it doesn't cross if that is what you believe.
Increase your dosage. If you take blends you will actually feel less of an effect mentally since androsterone and epiandrosterone have opposite effects. Androsterone is a GABA agonist while Epiandrosterone is a GABA antagonist so they can actually cancel each other out which is why some people like taking the blend since the epi will help overcome the lethargy from androsterone.
There is almost a 100 page thread of people using small amounts of androsterone (milligrams) and getting effects mentally
Edit (10/6/2022): Androsterone seems to be indeed a very effective precursor to DHT in-vivo, as demonstrated by the test results discussed in the thread below. https://raypeatforum.com/community/threads/idea-labs-hair-test-for-androgens.47974/post-856197 EDIT: Since I keep getting questions...
